    Space may be the final frontier, but it’s made in a Hollywood basement.

      And Cobain, can you hear the spheres singing songs off Station To Station?
      And Alderaan’s not far away, it’s Californication

    Well at least that one made sense from a financial point of view. Usually scenes in the Moon or even Mars would be cheaper to film on site.

        It’s a common joke because the average budget of a sci-fi blockbuster is higher than a typical space mission.

        Of course that’s comparing apple’s to oranges at several levels, but that’s why it’s a joke, otherwise Hollywood would have it’s own space program.

    Hold up, TARS was a animatronic!? That’s so cool, I thought it was full CGI.

    Edit- Actually I think it was CASE that landed on Miller with them, oop

      Here’s some behind-the-scenes about them https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7xe84b

      It was manually puppeted most of the time rather than being animatronic, but obviously with all the things that TARS and CASE can do they had to build different props for each one

    They’re filming a version in space, but in one day in space is like a dozen years on Earth so it won’t be done until 2187.

    Capricorn One was ahead of its time, the whole movie was about the Mars landing being filmed on Earth… completely filmed on Earth.
